I received this sealer and it was defective. So I recommend people unpack and check it right away. I called Food Saver and the rep was courteous and helpful. Very pleased that Amazon replaced the item in about a day.

The replacement works very well. It seals quietly and in about 10 seconds. It has sealed well although I am not pre-freezing the items prior to sealing. I am cooking the veggies, cooling them off and sealing while still warm or at room temp. A nice feature is that I can push the buttom for "seal-vacuum" and when it has drawn the air down to the point I want it, I can then push seal and stop it from continuing to pull a vacuum. It can also do this with a minimum of waste of bag length. Seal and vacuum as expected is a little bit noisier but still not as noisy as my previous model, a Rival Vacuum sealer.

I learned from my previous Rival and the defective sealing strip in the one that I had to return that it is essential to keep the sealing strip perfectly flat and to keep pressure from the gaskets. So I recommend gently lowering the lid when using it and storing the sealer with the lid propped open (same way as it is shipped).

I have had several food savers over the past few years, but this one has the strongest motor and works the best. It really does extend the life of foods in both the refrigerator and freezer. Being able to reseal crackers, cereal and other cabinet foods helps keep them fresh as well. Am very pleased with this item and would recommend it to friends.

We bought this to replace our old Food Saver that we've had for years. We liked it, so bought this one after some online research. This one's locking mechanism is a little harder to push down and engage, but that's not a complaint. We looked at more expensive models, but decided the added features, like storing the rolls of bag material, wasn't worth the extra money. This one does everything we need and takes less room to store. We don't worry about buying food, especially meat, on sale because we know that sealed in a Food Saver bag that it will be fresh and freezer burn free after months in the freezer.
